No different to a Thai national opening an account with their blue ID and ID number. When I opened the account I presented passport and Pink ID, the girl at the bank gave me a choice, I could use passport to open an English name account or pink ID to open a Thai name account. I recall the manager saying the pink ID was easier for them as the ID number goes straight into the bank software. The bank requirements for a foreigner opening an account probably doesn't list pink ID as its a Thai ID opening a Thai account. Maybe the bank has it completely wrong but it seemed pretty straight forward at the time, ID card issued by Thai Government, name and address in Thai, I wasn't really presenting as a foreigner with no ID other than a passport. I hear what you're saying,but I still insist that there are not one bank in Thailand where the "official" requirements allow a foreigner to open a bank account using the pink ID-card. That card doesn't exist in the banking world as an official ID. I hope you understand what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloudy Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 I had a guy who tried to use his pink ID card to check in to our resort. I refused as the ID card does not have a name in English, Nationality, passport number and of course he had no departure slip. Impossible to register him at immigration with this card.

You must one of the few, I use my pink ID card almost every-time (about twice a month) when checking into a hotel/resort and until now without any problems Edited September 6, 2019 by merijn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume your trying to say that no bank has a Pink ID card on their current list of accepted documents on their websites. That means nothing at all, just because YOU haven't seen an up to date list yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where was he from? Are you sure he didn't have PR? Where's your resort?................I'll keep well away from it.????
